Formula Chance by Sawyer Bennett - ARC Review & Release Blitz


In the second book of New York Times Bestselling Author Sawyer Bennett’s Race Fever series, she turns up the heat when a familiar name looks to shake up the world of formula racing. Buckle up for this heart stopping, second chance ride in Formula Chance.


Nash Sinclair abandoned the world of formula racing after a deadly crash left him injured and on a long road to recovery, both physically and mentally. Even prior to the crash Nash was healing in another way, putting together the pieces of a broken heart. They say time heals all wounds and when Brienne Norcross, owner of the newly acquired Titans Racing team approaches him about a job, he decides it might just be time to reclaim the life he once loved.

Bexley Toliver just joined the Titans’ team as their chief race strategy engineer. As a woman working in a male-centric sport, Bex is no stranger to a man’s eyes on her. Whether it’s in silent awe, not-so-silent disgust, or somewhere in between, Bexley has earned her way. But there is one set of eyes that Bex hasn’t seen in years and when Nash Sinclair walks into the conference room for a team meeting, old memories are hard to ignore. As the heat between them becomes all-consuming, they are unable to resist the temptation to fall once again.

Bex and Nash’s history is…complicated. Young love that turned into the promise of forever crashed and burned long before the race that ended Nash’s career. Years apart dulled the pain of their failed union but some things aren’t meant to be forgotten, no matter how hard one tries. When the same issues that broke them apart re-emerge and spin them full-speed toward a barricade, Bex and Nash need to make a decision—hit the brakes and walk away or race forward to their happily ever after.





Full disclosure, I am a huge F1 fan and at this point I am counting hours, not days but hours, until we are back to racing after winter break. So, I was predisposed to like this one, to like Nash and Bex, and to be all in on the story pretty much from page one.

And I was. I enjoyed it. I liked Nash and Bex together, and I really enjoyed the story the author was telling in the "Formula International" world. Their chemistry was phenomenal and I loved their relationship as well as the relationships that they built with those around them.

There was one part of the story line that dealt with her being a woman in a man's sport that didn't ring totally true for me. I am not saying misogyny isn't an issue, and I am not saying it doesn't exist, but rather I wasn't totally convinced that one of the people involved would have acted as they did. The other, absolutely. It's impossible to get into this more fully here without spoiling it, so I won't. But this was the one thing I struggled with in an otherwise really enjoyable book.

I enjoyed and recommend this title.
